channels which do not require a license. Additional B channels beyond these 8 require a
license. There are two additional channels licenses that define the number of additional
channels (above the default 8):
• Additional T1 Channels license — This license is for additional T1 trunks.
• Additional E1 Channels license — This license is for additional E1 or E1R2 trunks.
For trunk types on which channels can be set as in service, the licenses are consumed by
those channels which are configured as being in service. Manager will block attempts to
configure PRI channels as in service if they exceed the 8 per port allowed by default on that
card and if there are no Additional T1 Channels or Additional E1 Channels licenses
available.
120-day trial license
This license provides a 120-day trial period during which you have access to the features,
functions, and capabilities available in B5800 Branch Gateway. After the expiration of the 120-
day trial license, the 30-day grace period is activated. At the end of the 30-day grace period,
if no other license is installed or available, system administration is blocked, except for
administration that fixes the licensing errors.
License modes
The B5800 Branch Gateway system can be in one of three license modes — License Normal
Mode, License Error Mode, and License Restricted Mode. The license mode, as well as any
license errors, are displayed in IP Office Manager.
License Normal Mode
No license errors are present. The B5800 Branch Gateway can access the WebLM server and
obtain the required license entitlements. If the licensing method is used where an individual
PLDS license file is required for each branch, a valid license file is installed on the B5800
Branch Gateway with sufficient entitlements.
License Error Mode
One or more license errors are present. The B5800 Branch Gateway initiates a 30–day license
grace period during which time the system issues errors and alarms, but continues to provide
normal operation as in License Normal Mode. Calls are allowed and/or blocked based on
current configuration parameters and configured users can register, regardless of licensing
status. The license errors must be fixed either by installing a valid license file with the
appropriate licenses or by changing the configuration so that it does not exceed any license
capacities.
License Restricted Mode
One or more license errors are present and the 30–day license grace period has expired.
B5800 Branch Gateway prevents any administrative changes except those that fix the licensing
errors. While administration is restricted, dynamic system operation (such as making calls)
continues based on the current configuration parameters, regardless of licensing status.
